In an update to the injury story on Michelle McCool, the Women’s Champion was legitimately hurt last night in Hampton Beach, NH in her match with Eve Torres. Apparently her left knee buckled underneath her at some point during the match.
There’s no update on the severity of the issue; it could be just a freak accident and she could wrestle tonight which she is scheduled to do so. We should know more soon.
UPDATE #2 (Erin): According to PWInsider.com, Michelle was kept out of the ring tonight as a precautionary measure:
As it turned out, WWE Divas champion Michelle McCool was kept out of the ring at tonight’s house show in Bethlehem, PA as a precautionary measure. She was originally listed on the lineup backstage as facing Melina. Melina wrestled Katie Burchill instead.
I’d like to think that this means she isn’t seriously injured and is just sitting out until SmackDown’s tapings, but we won’t know for sure until Tuesday.
UPDATE #3: House show reports have surfaced on last night’s show. Michelle was in attendance though was kept off due to the injury she suffered the night before. Report from F4W Online:
Melina pinned Katie Lea Burchill w/a bridge off the reversal of a schoolgirl…just before the finish, Michelle McCool came out to the top of the entranceway noticeably limping…taunting Melina w/the Women’s Title belt
